Online ticket sales closed earlier in the week, so we could make and print out all the badges.

Tickets will be available at the door starting at ~8:30am.

Early birds will get their pick of all the frags and live stock!

The tickets I paid for online will be held at the door correct? I didn't get anything in the mail. Is it ok to buy frags at 9 in the morning and keep them in a cooler til the shows over? Seems like a long time.

Everyone who prepaid will have pre-printed tickets available at the sign in desk along with any raffle tickets purchased.

Those that have not registered will be able to buy a ticket at the door.

As far as the corals are concerned, most should be good for an extended duration if they are bagged correctly and kept reasonably warm.

Don't forget that a good percentage of the corals we see in CT are shipped in from coral farms. Most shipments are "overnight", but they are still traveling for 12+ hours.

Corals are a lot more robust than what we give them credit for. Keep in mind that some corals are exposed to the atmosphere and sun for several hours at low tide in some parts of the reef.

I can't speak for all the livestock vendors but Puppy Center will hold your purchases in a heated bucket so you can buy early and get the cherries. Just don't forget to pick them up before the end of the show.
